Completly knocked out.

But what have you done?

In my /etc/login.conf I have:

da_DK:Danish users:\
        :charset=iso-8859-1:\
        :lang=da_DK.ISO8859-1:\
        :tc=default:

Then I set my login class in the master.passwd to da_DK. Having diffe- rent login classes this way allows you to support multiple languages for users. Otherwise, you can set these option in the default: section without the need to change your login class. You need to run cap_mkdb on login.conf after that (I think).

In /etc/ttys I have set all consoles to cons25l, but this only affects when you login directly. Finally in /etc/rc.conf

keymap="danish.iso"     # keymap in /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/*(or NO).
font8x8="iso-8x8"
font8x14="iso-8x14"
font8x16="iso-8x16"

For you, whatever above looks danish, change to portugeese. I recommend you sticking to things that looks like iso-standards for interopera- bility.

I think this is about it.

Cheers, Erik
